The secrets of the sierras

WOW!! real nice...

That was a nice looking snake. I have a Glossy snake and it look just like the one you found. It's about 3 feet long. All winter long they stay under ground and come in spring time. Not aggresive but if hungry they will bite.
Nice pics.

Great report!

Insane report! Perfect timing....
I will be going on my first freshwater trip to June Lake Loop with my wifes grandfather in June. Looks amazing out there. I would definitely be stoked to come if you guys all plan a trip!

Went there with my wife (girlfriend) in the may '02. Stayed at the Cabins west of June Lake. Rented one of the aluminum boats and fished with my wife. Ate at the diner near the rental office. Great place. This report re-kindled the desire to take the wife and kids there.

That was awesome, love to see reports from other places. That deer shot was more like a where's waldo picture. Of course my eyes suck so I could only see a couple of them.

Ever fish Billy Lake Slough? right around Independence, CA
One photo looks like the drive up to Onion Valley...Pinion Creek?
How about South Fork? Fish hatchery? East side of 395?

Love the Eastern Sierra's

We didn't fish Crowley, but I did see that they were inspecting boats there. No inspections anywhere else

For opening weekend boat inspections were being performed in the Von's parking lot at the northeast end of Bishop. I don't know if inspections will continue there but please don't put your boat or kayak in any clean waters if you've used them in waters contaminated with the Zebra or Quagga mussels/snails. Please act responsibly.

stevoo, great pictures.
